What Happened In Ferguson,( By The Numbers)

First of all, as always, I would like to offer my condolences to the family and friends of Michael Brown.

In addition to what you've just seen on this video which is the end result of all of the incidents leading up to the Execution Style Shooting of Michael Brown, who is now being demonized by the "Powers That Be" in Ferguson Missouri in order to justify his Execution by Ferguson Police Officer Darren Wilson.

Like many other Unjustified Black Male and Female Murders by Policeman and other Racists whose underlying goal is not Self Defense of Life, Property or Arrest and Prosecution.

That is not their goal.

The goal is a word that was used repeatedly before the New Millennium which is when people either as a matter of false perception or denial, began to promote the fantasy of a "Post Racial Society".

Genocide

I say denial because, it is easier to deny that a problem exists than it is to do the necessary work to fix it.

The latter does not require any Work, Sacrifice, Unity or Activism; because it is easier to do nothing; (Like The Republican Congress).

However, this problem did not start with the killing of Michael Brown.

(According to its own citizens),for Ferguson, this has been a problem for quite some time now; and the death of Michael Brown was just an accident waiting to happen because of the fact that they allowed themselves to be Schooled, Policed and Lead by people who do not know them, understand them or even like or care about them.

This is where the numbers come in:

Note: The problem is in bold; and it is a problem that I always write about that requires pro-action as opposed to reaction.

Ferguson, Missouri: Demographics from the 2010 Census:

21,203

Over 18 years of age

15, 115

Caucasians

6,206

African Americans

14, 297

103

Asians

80

Native Americans

96

Others

421

Identified by more than one race

22%

Live in poverty

White mayor Six City Council Members 5 white and 1 African American

Ferguson’s population 67% African American, police force 5.6% African American

Ferguson is the 6th most segregated city in the nation.

This year, only 12.3% of eligible voters VOTED. In 2013 only 11.7% and in 2012 only 8.9%.

The problem is Political Apathy.

And it is a disease that many African Americans and other Minorities Suffer from.

When you fail to exercise your right to choose the people who will school your children, lead your community and protect it, then you allow other people to walk into those positions unopposed, and you do not help those who have your best interest at heart to get into a position that allows them to do so.

Now of course! I've heard and seen so much about the video that shows Michael Brown forcibly stealing cigars, and some Blacks with a Plantation Mentality and a lot of Whites who are mostly Right Wing Hate Mongers who think that Black People are not Human anyway, and don't deserve to share the earth with them, think: "There you have it. He's dead because he stole cigars".

To both groups I say: Even if Michael Brown stole cigars, he should have been arrested and prosecuted, not executed.

And to the people of Ferguson I say, that I am sorry for your lost, but these problems of inequality, (which everyone agrees have been ongoing), should have been addressed through Political Activism way before this incident occurred.

And as I said above: If Michael Brown stole cigars he should have been arrested and prosecuted, not executed.

But unfortunately as a result of Political Apathy, only 12.3% of the African American Population in Ferguson vote while the majority did not.

As a result, you have a Minority controlling the Majority, just like it was back on the Plantation.

Those who chose to do nothing allowed those who agree with and support these Racists and their Plantation Style of Controlling Black People, to put these people in office unopposed.

I hope that more people will become engaged in the Political Process in Ferguson and in other Minority Communities across the country, so that our communities will have Fair and Equal Representation even when it comes to arresting and prosecuting those who commit crimes in our neighborhoods.

And speaking of Criminals, to all of you who are in Ferguson not to honor the death of this young man and to respect the wishes of his bereaved parents, other family members and his friends; please get the hell out and let the True Activists do their jobs so that incidents like this can be eliminated or at least minimized.

Thank you,

G.R.C.
